As of 2026, Aerodyne Group and MTi (Mingothings International) have active partnerships and strategic agreements — primarily centered on combining Aerodyne’s drone and AI-based technologies with MTi’s IoT, smart infrastructure, and data platforms. Here’s what is publicly known about those collaborations:
Ai research
✅ 1. Strategic Partnership (MoU) between Aerodyne Group and MTi
Aerodyne Group and MTi entered a formal strategic partnership (often described as a Memorandum of Understanding) in September 2025 that is still active in 2026. Under this agreement:
• Aerodyne contributes its drone platforms and AI-driven drone analytics solutions (for infrastructure, environmental and asset monitoring).
• MTi provides its IoT solutions (e.g., thethings.io IoT platform, Digital Twin, Metering Box) to integrate with Aerodyne’s drone data — creating combined smart city and infrastructure solutions.
• The partnership aims to deliver joint solutions such as drone-assisted telco tower inspections, asset management and bushfire detection, fully integrated with MTi’s digital platforms to accelerate digital transformation across regions including Southeast Asia and beyond. ?
🛰️ 2. Integrated Smart City & Infrastructure Solutions
Though details on specific contracts are limited, the partnership is being used to deploy integrated smart city solutions that fuse:
• Drone data capture and AI analytics from Aerodyne,
• With IoT and digital twin infrastructure platforms from MTi.
These cross-technology offerings are positioned for:
• Smart city monitoring & management
• Environmental and utility systems
• Infrastructure inspection and maintenance
All leveraging AI-based automation and data insights. ?
🌍 3. Extended Initiatives in Smart City Innovation
According to Aerodyne’s public updates, the partnership framework also involves joint work on broader “smart city and disaster management applications.” These initiatives include:
• National disaster and bushfire management systems, combining Aerodyne’s DRONOS SaaS and drone analytics with MTi’s IoT/AI capabilities.
• Integrated smart mobility and urban innovation frameworks across multiple regions (with partner ecosystems). ?
?
❓ Current Status of Formal Contracts
• There is no publicly verified, named contractual deal announced in 2026 solely between Aerodyne Group and MTi for a specific project (e.g., a government contract or purchase order) that is independently confirmed in press releases beyond the strategic MoU and joint solution cooperation.
• The partnership appears to be ongoing and active, intended as a commercial collaboration framework for future contracts rather than a single, named contract as of early 2026.
Here’s the latest verified **information about active contracts or partnerships in Malaysia (2025 – 2026) between Aerodyne Group and Mingothings International (MTi) — including their drone and AI-based solutions work together with local ecosystem initiatives:
📌 1. Strategic Partnership MoU Signed at Smart City Expo Kuala Lumpur (2025)
• Aerodyne Group and Mingothings International (MTi) formally signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) at the Smart City Expo Kuala Lumpur 2025. Under this agreement:
• Aerodyne acts as the technology partner, providing drone platforms and AI-driven solutions.
• MTi serves as the solutions integrator and business development partner, especially focusing on IoT, smart city systems and data platforms.
• The collaboration is explicitly aimed at smart city development, national infrastructure management, environmental monitoring (e.g., bushfire/digital resilience), and next-generation open data solutions in Malaysia. ?
Status: Active strategic framework partnership — not yet a named single project contract, but explicitly positioned for future and ongoing smart city and infrastructure deployments. ?
?
📌 2. Role in Malaysia Smart City & Digital Transformation Initiatives
• The Aerodyne–MTi collaboration is part of a broader set of national digital transformation partnerships showcased at the Smart City Expo, aligning their technologies with Malaysia’s smart city ambitions.
• Aerodyne’s drone and AI stack (e.g., DRONOS and analytics) is being paired with MTi’s IoT platforms (like thethings.io, digital twin and sensor ecosystems) to support overarching use cases such as:
• Infrastructure asset inspection and monitoring
• Real-time environmental data gathering
• Integrated smart urban operations
• Potential deployment with government or municipal partners in coming phases
(Note: Specific named government project awards at this stage have not been separately published beyond the MoU scope). ?
?
📌 3. Partnership Role Clarification (LinkedIn/Official Posts)
• According to public statements from Aerodyne:
• Aerodyne is specified as the technology partner for drone and AI-based solutions.
• MTi is the solutions integrator focusing on business development across smart cities and related infrastructure initiatives. ?
This clarifies how the contract relationship is structured: Aerodyne contributes the hardware, drone solutions, and analytics AI; MTi integrates that with IoT and city/asset data platforms for customers. ?
?
🟡 Important Context:
• As of early 2026, there are no publicly disclosed named government project contracts in Malaysia between Aerodyne and MTi (e.g., awarded tenders or finalized MOUs leading to official deployment contracts).*
• What is publicly confirmed is the strategic MoU and joint spotlight at the Smart City Expo. ?
• The MoU does intend to pave the way for project-specific contracts (e.g., with municipal governments, federal agencies, or infrastructure operators) as the partnership evolves — but these have not yet been announced in official press or filings.
🔍 Summary (Malaysia 2026)

Status
Formal Partnership Agreement
Active MoU (Smart City Expo KL 2025) — framework for collaboration.
Named Project Contracts (e.g., awarded to either party)
Not publicly confirmed yet (no specific Malaysian government contract disclosed as of early 2026).
Joint Solution Development
Ongoing integration of drone + AI with IoT and smart city platforms.
📌 Recent Non-Contract Announcements (2025)
These were public activity or partnership announcements in 2025, but not new contracts:
• Aerodyne Group became an AWS Software Partner (validating its DRONOS platform for cloud/AWS ecosystem use) — technology partnership, not a specific sale/contract. ?
• Past strategic MoUs and partnerships (e.g., Phoenix-Wings drone logistics collaboration, and earlier MTi strategic partnership) — framework agreements or technology alliances, not confirmed contract awards. ?
?
📌 What This Means for Contract News
At the moment, if Aerodyne Group did secure a new contract in late 2025 or early 2026, it hasn’t been widely reported in mainstream press or indexed in the public press feeds available online (at least as of the most recent search results).
This happens sometimes with enterprise or government deals:
• Some contracts are announced directly to customers and not widely syndicated.
• Others are confidential until deployment milestones are met.
• Some are reported via local/regional trade publications that may not be fully indexed yet.
